History

Karolina [17]2 years ago
4 0

The sepoy mutiny was a widespread but unsuccessful rebellion against British rule in India in 1857–58. A rumour spread among the sepoys that the grease used to lubricate the cartridges was a mixture of pigs’ and cows’ lard. This had hurt both Hindus' and Muslims' religious sentiments which was one of the causes of the sepoy mutiny of 1857.

How did the events of the Tennis Court Oath increase the prestige of the Third Estate? By showing that the people could overpowe
fredd [130]

The correct answer is: " By showing that the people could overpower the monarch".

The events of the Tennis Court Oath meant the start of the French Revolution in 1789. The members of the Third Estate, had left the Estates General, the assembly organized by the king which gathered the three Estates of the Realm (the three social classes in which the reign was divided) . They considered they had no voice there, as their Estate represented the majority of the population and its decisions could always be overturned by the ones of the other two privileged estates, as each estate had one vote.

The Third Estate founded the National Assembly instead and they took the Tennis Court Oath through which they agreed "not to separate, and to reassemble wherever circumstances require" until a constitution had been drafed. These events preceeded the derrocation and execution of King Louis XVI, the abolition of feudalism and absolute monarchies in France, and subsequently in the whole Europe, and the enactment of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen, the first declaration of civil rights in the world.

What reasons did Wilson give Congress for declaring war on Germany?.
joja [24]

President Wilson clearly referred to Germany's resumed submarine warfare as "a war against mankind" in his request to Congress to declare war on Germany on April 2. This conflict involves all countries. He also discussed the deceit of the Zimmermann Telegram and German espionage inside the United States.

What five factors led the US to join World War One?

  • These are the top five explanations for why America enlisted in World War One:
  • 'The Lusitania' Germany started using unrestricted submarine warfare in the Atlantic from the beginning of 1915.
  • American loans.
  • The German invasion of Belgium.
  • Unrestricted submarine warfare being brought back.
  • The telegram from Zimmerman

What did President Wilson want to do about the war?

  • It was Wilson's goal to keep America completely out of World War I, which began in 1914—and have the country serve as a peacemaker to other nations.
  • However, his efforts were largely unsuccessful; many countries failed to take seriously any of Wilson's offers to be a mediator.

Question 25
Vsevolod [243]

The serious difficulty for the national government under the Articles of Confederation is "It lacked the authority to raise money to support itself ".

<u> Explanation: </u>

The Article of Confederation gave away most of the power to the state and federal government had only limited control over the state. Particularly this article made a power less national government during the American Revolution.  

The American states were of the opinion that if the strong national government is there in the central means it may affect the autonomy of the states.

So the states were strongly objected to the formation of strong central government and felt that the most decision making power should be with them.

The downfall of The Article of confederation was simply because it has no power to make laws to control the states.
